What is Robotic Groin Node Dissection?

Groin node dissection (inguinal lymph node dissection) is a procedure performed to remove lymph nodes in the groin affected by cancer spread.

It is commonly required in cancers such as:

• Penile cancer
• Vulvar cancer
• Skin cancers (melanoma)
• Selected lower limb malignancies

Robotic groin node dissection is a minimally invasive technique where lymph nodes are removed using robotic instruments through small incisions, avoiding large open wounds.

When is Groin Node Dissection Required?

This surgery is recommended in:

Confirmed lymph node involvement in groin

High-risk cancers with potential lymph node spread

Clinically or radiologically suspicious nodes

After biopsy-proven nodal disease


Decision depends on imaging, biopsy, and primary cancer type.

Why Robotic Groin Node Dissection?

Robotic approach offers major advantages over open surgery:

Smaller incisions with better cosmetic outcome

Reduced wound complications (infection, breakdown)

Lower risk of lymphatic leakage and seroma

High precision dissection

Less post-operative pain

Faster recovery and mobilisation


Especially beneficial as open groin surgery has high complication rates.
